Editing Modulor (section)

==Promotion==
On 10 January 1946 during a visit to New York, Le Corbusier met with [[Henry J. Kaiser]], an American industrialist whose [[Kaiser Shipyard]] had built [[Liberty ship]]s during World War II. Kaiser's project was to build ten thousand new houses a day, but he had changed his mind and decided to build cars instead.{{sfnp|Le Corbusier|2004|p=52}} During the interview, Le Corbusier sympathised with Kaiser's problems of coordinating the adoption of equipment between the American and British armies because of the differences in units of length; and promoted his own ''harmonious scale''.{{sfnp|Le Corbusier|2004|p=115}}

On the same trip he met with [[David E. Lilienthal]] of the [[Tennessee Valley Authority]] to promote the use of his ''harmonious scale'' on further civil engineering projects.{{sfnp|Le Corbusier|2004|p=53}}

He also applied the principle of the Modulor to the efficient design of distribution crates in post war France.{{sfnp|Le Corbusier|2004|p=122}}
